THE Interstate commerce COM
mission is not winning for itselfgold-
en- opinions by its action in suspend
ing the long and short haul clause
in favor of a southern railway. 1t
is received by the public as dis
elimination of gigantic proportions
which verdict Of the people the
commission has strengthened by
more recent decisions. Petitions for
suspension or leniency have been
sent in without number from COM
panies controlling large interests
that were suffering heavy damage
by the law and threatened with an
Inhalation. To the great majority
of these the commission has indited
ambiguous response, simply disa-
vowing their power to afford relief,
their office being only to act where
violations were alleged. So it APP
pears that their hastily rendered
decision in the first case was enron.
eous, and to win the rare and price,
less jewel of consistency they mus,
recind that action.
In the probable event of strict
enforcement of the law the tendency
and inevitable result will be tc
create and foster local manufacture:
at the expense of those that have
prospered under the special and dis
criminative rates of the old system
And it is the first pangs Of these
effects that is causing the cry now
being raised in certain sections
against the law and its trainers
The immediate results of the law
throughout the country will be the
most damaging, while the accruine
results of building up the manufac
turing industries and bringing the
producer and manufacturer nearer
together, uniting yet more closely
their interests, will be accumulative
and can only be appreciated wher
experience has made more clear it
influence. Some of its features mos
disagreeable at present will be over
come eventually. The country will
be better able to pass upon the
merits or dement's of the law when
some of its best qualities have de
veloped, which, owing to the very
nature of the case, have not yet ap
peared. The companies are no
exerting themselves to popularize
the measure, but when they realize
that it has come to stay, if it shall
survive the clamor of its opponents
they will conduct their business il
such a manner as to make the law
much more agreeable than it now

IT seems that in that measure
known as the coercion bill, move
ment to put quietus on public sem
timent and endeavor IN Ireland, the
English lords have overdone their
aggressions toward the suffering
people, and fastened the crisis in
Irish affairs. Not only has it aroused
the slumbering sentiment Of the
Irish people and awakened the
smouldering embers Of conscious in
jury to flame of Just and righteous
indignation, but there have been
several notable cases of revolution
of sentiment among the Englishmen,
who now see the injustice in the
policy of the government toward
her subjects of the Emerald Isle,
The voice of free Americans has
been raised in protest against further
subsection of this long wronged
people and its echoes have fallen
effectually upon the English ear
The effects cannot be Immediately
fully appreciated, but will prove
accumulative, and in the approach.
ing end will be recognized as both
salutary and forceful.

THE appearance Of Gov. Larrabee

THE appearance Of Gov. Larrabee

way before the state railway COM
mission has brought to light great
many facts that have not heretofore
been given to the public, and for his
business like conduct of the case the
governor is entitled to much COM
mendation. Both parties were placed
under oath and the facts they gave
and the accompanying controversy
was conducted with courtesy and
apparently the best of feeling on
both sides. While the governor ex-
tended to the company's representa-
tives that consideration private
citizen might expect, he stubbornly
protested against the discriminative
rates charged by the company, and
on behalf Of the people demanded
that the carriers make rate to
Glenwood as low, at least, as that to
Council Bluffs. 1t was shown that
at least two states have lower trans
portation than Iowa, and that notably
two roads in the state make a rate
below that charged by the Q. The
governor, we believe made a clear
case, and that without mourning
acrimony in the debate or evincing
any prejudice against railroads or
even the particular one against which
he was urging the peoples claim.
What the commission may deter
mine upon in the premises can only
be >surmised, but however it may be,
the excellent services the governor
has rendered the people can not be
forgotten, and even though he fail
of accomplishing the purpose for
which the present action was insti-
tuted, the railway managers will
hold in wholesome regard lowa's
chief executive. The Glenwood
case, as it has come to be desi grated,
will be a memorable incident in the
history of the peoples effort to re-
duce the public servants from their
high position as dictators, and a
governor with less stamina than
Mr.. Larrabee might have allowed
the grasping corporations to con-
tinue their filching without molcsta-
ton,

THE disagreement of the Arens-
dorfjury is a surprise to all who have
followed the course of the trial and
noted the attending circumstances.
Disagreement was confidently ex-
pected, but it was only supposed
that the minority, consisting of not
more than three, would favor acquit-
tai and the majority would deter
minedly stand for conviction. The
result, showing eleven of the body
avowing their belief in Arensdorf's
innocence is astounding. 1t cannot
be credited, however, that the con-
clusion has been arrived at by un-
prejudiced consideration of the facts
presented. The evidence of guilt is
in preponderance, and all the testi-
mony of the defense is so conflicting
and contradictory as to be of little
effect other than to demonstrate the
weakness of the defendants plea.
The prosecution presented a clear
case to prove that the defendant
fired the fatal shot, and the conflict.
ing and contradictory testimony of
sympathetic witnesses must have
outweighed the statements OF the
best witnesses, corroberated by num-
erous circumstances, to Justify the
conclusions of the eleven who stood
for acquittal. The judges charge
to the jury setting forth that if the
defendant were guilty of conspiracy
even though not the direct ASSASSIN
he yet was guilty of murder, would
seem to leave no ground tor acquit-
tai or disagreement, in view of the
evidence. 1t is only reasonable
judgment that the majority OF the
jury have ignored the evidence, dis.
regarded their instructions and VIC.
lated their oaths. All honor is due
Dennis O'Connell, the worthy Irish
American, and the lonely minority
who avowed the consciousness OF

GEO. WILLIAM CURTIS, the mug
wump chleftain, in late interview,
expressed his opinion that Cleveland
cannot secure a denomination and
even if successful in that, cannot be
reelected. This belief is also shared
by Mr.. Dana, Of the New York
Sun. Curtis says that the mug
wumps are satisfied with Cleveland
and the president is better than his
party, to which latter assertion we
believe the party will enter vigor-
GUS protest. But it is really inmate
rial where the slaughter takes place.
If the party overlooks Mr.. Cleve-
lands defects and gives him second
nomination, the decapitation act will
be performed by the people at the
polls and executed with neatnes:

FRONT In Horses.

1t has been demonstrated in the
older states and counties that horse
raising is one Of the most profitable
branches to which the farmer can
turn his attention, and the extent of
profit is only limited by the quality
OF the animal raised. The large
cities, the pineries and all works
where hauling is necessary create a
good market for large horses, the
demand being such that it has never
yet been equalled by the supply.
Inferior animals, OF course will not
sell on that market, or, indeed, on
any other, but we'll bred draft horses
will bring fabulous prices that richly
renumerate the producer and give
him a profit greater than can be
made in any other branch Of farming
or stock raising. OF the cities, it is
said that Chicago has a market tor
100000 draft horses annually, while
there is always an active sale for
shipment to new states. While this
market for draft horses prevails,
those of an inferior quality or size
can not be sold at any price, so tina,
the fact is obvious that the profit for
farmers in horse raising lies in large
horses. The expense of their raising
is not greater than that Of the poor.
est scrub, while at two years of age
they are available for moderate work
and at three or four may be turned
off at profit not equalled, we dare
say, in any other branch of agricul.
ture, stock raising or commercial
business in the country. 1t is the
safest investment that can be made
offers the greatest profits, and the
opportunity is open for every farmer
to attain independence by raising
heavy horses. Good stock has been
imported to Audubon county, such
as will largely increase the aggregate
wealth of the county, and enrich a.
many as see and improve the oppor,
tunity offered.
